Regular Season Round 20: Yamagata - Fukushima 63-96

Date: December 6, 2025
Everything went according to plan in Yamagata where first ranked Firebonds (19-1) outscored 6th ranked Wyverns (5-15) 96-63 on Saturday. Fukushima outrebounded Yamagata 40-29 including 34 on the defensive glass. Fukushima looked well-organized offensively handing out 33 assists comparing to just 17 passes made by Yamagata's players. Americans were the main players on the court. The best player for the winners was power forward Jack Nunge (213-1999, college: Xavier) who had a double-double by scoring 26 points and 10 rebounds. Swingman Kenny Manigault (195-1991, college: Pikeville) chipped in 5 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists. Four Firebonds players scored in double figures. Center Noah Waterman (211-2000, college: Louisville) produced 16 points and 5 rebounds and Ryan Kelly (211-1991, college: Duke, agency: Slash Sports) added 9 points and 7 assists respectively for the hosts. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Firebonds have an impressive 18-game winning streak. Fukushima maintains first position with 19-1 record. Yamagata at the other side keeps the sixth place with 15 games lost. Fukushima will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Yamagata will play against the league's leader Fukushima (#1) and hope to secure a win.
